My Husband Stole My Kidney,Then Died for the Girl Who Was MeChapter 1
I'd just finished my physical exam when a post popped up on my feed:
"My sugar baby is in kidney failure. The only person who matches her is my wife. How do I get my wife to willingly donate her kidney?"
One comment read:
"Easy. Tell your wife SHE'S the one with kidney failure, and your mistress is a kind stranger who's donating to save her. She'll walk into that operating room without a second thought!"
What a vile idea.
I was still shaking my head, pitying whatever poor woman was married to such a man, when my husband walked in holding a test result.
Benedict James was Chief of Surgery at this hospital. He stood before me now, his face a careful mask of concern and relief.
"Honey, you have kidney failure. You need surgery right away." He paused, letting that sink in. "But we got lucky—there's a kind soul here at the hospital who's a perfect match. She's agreed to donate. I've already scheduled the operation for tomorrow."

I stared at him.
The worry in his eyes. The way his voice caught just slightly. He looked like a man terrified of losing his wife.
I blinked, my mind blank for a split second.
